Fauna Quest for the Evergreen Tree chapter 6

Fauna, Quest for the Evergreen Tree
Chapter 6

Fauna stared once again into the eyes of the dragon.
"Why, did you save us if you are the daughter of an evil dragon?" 
Erithna frowned, "Not every dragon is created to be evil." 
Fauna blushed and looked away. "Then..." 
Rowen interrupted by shooting an arrow an inch from the dragon's neck.
"Fauna! Stay back."
Fauna bit her lip and pounced on Rowen before he could nock another arrow.
"Rowen, I'm glad you're a horrible shot! This dragon is our friend!" growled Fauna. Rowen stared questioningly at Fauna, who was now on top of his chest. Fauna's cheeks colored and she hurried back toward the dragon. "This is Erithna, daughter of Raketh and friend of elves." Rowen glared at Erithna. "Daughter? Of, Raketh? She cannot be a friend." Fauna simply stared at the glowering Rowen and decided to let Erithna take control. "Fauna, your friend cannot understand the language of dragons." Fauna looked anxiously at Rowen, he didn't seem to  hear anything but the low grumbling noise that Erithna was making as she talked. "Then how is it that I understand you?" asked Fauna. Rowen looked wide eyed at Fauna. "Fauna... what are you doing?" Fauna look confused at Rowen. "Can't you understand her?" Rowen shook his head slowly and took a few steps away from Fauna. "How is it that you can? Are you a sorcerer?" Fauna shook her head quickly, she would not be mixed up in the evil witchcraft that sorcerers indulged themselves with. "Of course not Rowen! What is going on?" Erithna stood up and Fauna realized how big the silvery blue dragon was, she was 20 feet tall and 5 feet in width, her wings were at least 15 feet long and her eyes were the size of Fauna's head. "Calm yourself young one, you are not participating in witchcraft, you have a gift." Fauna walked toward Rowen, what was going on? Thousands of questions were pounding in her head, was she a monster? Rowen trusted her enough to let her near him. "What did that dragon say?" asked Rowen, keeping his eyes on Erithna all the while. "She said, I have a gift." Fauna said, voice trembling. Rowen became more tense, "A gift of witch craft?" Fauna slowly shook her head.
"How did I come by this gift?" asked Fauna. Erithna seemed to smile. "The EverKing has blessed you young one." Fauna was shaken, this was a myth all of this was a myth and yet all of it was happening. "How is that possible?" Erithna seemed to softly grunt. "The EverKing makes all things possible."
